Hi Everyone,
Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post my question. We are working to upstream
'open-vm-tools'. Please check https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883614
for more details. I followed all the instructions specified in
'https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package' wiki and created a
SPEC file. I executed 'rpmbuild' command and was able to build the RPM. But when I
try to install the generated RPM, I get weird errors.

I don't have any idea what these random generated numbers are and where they are
coming from. I am very much sure 'open-vm-tools' package doesn't
build/generate these .debug files. Can someone help resolve this issue. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Those "random generated numbers" are debuginfo file names. How they end
up in your packages dependencies... I cannot even begin to guess.
If you can put the spec (or for added bonus, entire src.rpm) somewhere
we can try to figure out what the problem is.

I don't have any idea what these random generated numbers are and where they are
coming from. I am very much sure 'open-vm-tools' package doesn't
build/generate these .debug files. Can someone help resolve this issue. Any help would be
